What is Human Society?

It includes large social


groupings, social interactions
and social organization…

Very Good!

A Human Society is a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, or


a large social grouping having the same geographical or social territory,
typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural
expectations.

Human Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations)


between individuals who share a distinct culture and institutions.

A given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among
its constituent members.

Points to remember:

HOW SOCIETY IS ORGANIZED?


*”No man is an island, no man stands alone”- John Donne
*Throughout life, most of the daily activities of humans are performed in the
company of others.
*The need of human contact is a deep psychological need.
`

Group- any unit of people who interact with some regularity, and who identify
themselves as one unit.
-collection of people interacting together in an orderly way on the basis of
shared expectations about another’s behavior.
-as a result of interaction, members develop a sense of “belongingness”.
-a group can be categorized based on number, common interest, purpose
and level of interactions.

ACCORDING TO INFLUENCE
*Primary groups- those which are small but intimate, direct access and interaction
with each other, emotional bond.
Examples: Close friends and family

* Secondary groups- formed to perform a specific purpose, members interact for the
accomplishment of purpose, usually formal and impersonal
-possible to form primary groups
Examples: Becoming friends with one’s seatmate in a Math class

ACCORDING TO MEMBERSHIP

*In-groups- those groups in which one belongs and those which elicit a sense of
loyalty from the individual.
Example: Being part of the women’s basketball team allows one bond with
teammates and join pep rallies to support the team.

* Out-groups- those groups in which one does not belong and those which elicit
sense of antagonism from the individual.

Example: Being part of the women’s basketball team gives one a sense of
antagonism toward te men’s basketball team as the latter gets more funding
despite a bad performance during the last season.

ACCORDING TO REFERENCE GROUPS


* Reference groups- are those that provide an individual with a set of standards to
check against and to know if one is doing well or where he or she needs
improvement.
Example: A neophyte scientist considers his superiors as reference groups.

ACCORDING TO NETWORKS
*The entirety of social connections an individual takes part in for whatever purpose
and through whatever means.
Example: the politician’s link with civil society organizations and NGOs is a good
example of network

Let us discuss Role in Social Groups and


Social institutions
`

Social Roles

Members must have roles in a group. Individual or personal roles are


different from social roles. When an individual belongs to a group, that
individual has to perform his social role- not personal role. He must perform
his assigned role according to group’s norms.

Performance Roles depends on the cohesiveness of the members.


Cohesiveness of members in a group is measured in four(4) ways:

1. Number of Friends- The degree of cooperation and participation of


the group on various activities depend on the number of relatives
and friends in the group. The more relatives and friends in a group,
the greater is the cohesiveness.
2. Morale of the members- When members have high morale in the
group they have confidence with one another and the greater would
be the cohesiveness of the members in the group.
3. Sense of Belongingness- loyalty to the group emerges when there is a
sense of belongingness among the individuals in a group. The
members even go to the extent of protecting and defending the
existent of the group.
4. Commitment of the Members- when the members are committed to
group’s goals, norms, and activities, the members are able to work
cooperatively as a team. Thus the greater commitment to the group,
the greater is the cohesiveness among the members.

Institutions

Institutions provide a framework of continuity and predictability that allows


people to more accurately plan their activities. In particular, Institutions help
us interact with each other by imposing a sense of stability and order onto
the initially chaotic jumble life.

Social Network

This is an element of social interaction in which a web of relationships exist


among people, directly or indirectly. For example, a student may have a
several networks such as his classmates, peer groups or barkada, with his
teachers, members of the faculty, the library personnel, the sales personnel
in the book store where he buys his books, in the gym with athletes, in the
church where he performs his religious duties, and others. However the first
social network is the family and other relatives.
`

Social Networks have significant functions.

1. They help individuals develop opinions, choices and point of views


2. They serve as primary source of information on any activity and concerns of the
individual.
3. They may influence the personality of the people.
4. They provide opportunities and control to one’s behavior. In some instances, they
serve as opportunities for growth and success.
5. They provide individuals with an important source of companionship.
6. They provide an important opportunity for economic transactions such as sharing of
tangible and intangible resources, gift giving etc.
7. They also provide rules for distributing society’s resources. Whenever resource control
is allocated equally, the distribution rule becomes the basis of social stratification.
The very common distribution principle is the rule of reciprocity, which means that
the giving of gifts obligates the recipient to return something of similar value.
